What would be pressure boundary condition on airfoil surface that oscillates in inviscid and viscous fluid flow? please send me a paper regarding this subject.

That would depend on what kind of solver you are using and what velocity components that you use.A neumann boundary condition of dp/dn=0 or extrapolation seems to work.But it again depends on the details of your solver.

Hi, I've been using dp/dn=0 in oscillating airfoil. However, some other ppl had used dp/dn=-(Du/Dt).n, where Du/dt is the material derivative and n is the normal. Is this a more accurate BC?

Thanks

Yes, the pressure gradient should be balanced by the normal acceleration. That's what the normal momentum equation can be approximated by at the boundary.

How can we calculate Du/Dt on an oscillating airfoil surface?
